[quote][i]Originally posted by Ian[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by Russ[/i] Love how Ian is saying it's Facebook bollocks and is quoting £90ph for sign language interpreters. Guessing you saw that in the Daily Mail? [/quote] No, in the document referred to in the article, which I read. https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/426416/future-of-access-to-work-equality-analysis.pdf [quote] 3.3 Central Contracting of BSL interpreters Background 3.3.1. There are around 1,100 registered BSL interpreters serving around 25,000 BSL users in the UK. Hourly rates are typically £35-£45 ph. but AtW has been quoted up to £90. This is significantly higher than foreign language interpreting. [/quote] Did you read it? Did MoesTavern read it? Did half of Facebook read it? It then goes on to discuss the affect of a cap - [quote]Numbers affected 3.6.8. There is no data to indicate how many customers may have been affected by the 30 hour guidance, but Access to Work currently has 5,750 Deaf and hearing loss customers, 3,084 of whom have awards for BSL interpretation (although not all of these would be for more than 30 hours a week). The average spend on interpreters per BSL user is £9,582. Although this is significantly higher than average spend [per user across the scheme] , it is comfortably within any of the options for a cap level.[/quote] As you can see, the proposed caps do nothing for this group anyway, hence why the caps are not the main focus of the document. Don't you fucking dare suggest I rely soly on the DM for information :lol: [Edited on 10-05-2015 by Ian] [/quote]
